A National Book Critics Circle Award Finalist
Named a Best Book of the Year byThe New York Times Book Review - NPR - The New Republic - Salon - The Seattle Times - Houston Chronicle - The Miami Herald - Publisher's Weekly Remind s] us with uncommon understanding what it is to be young and idealistic, in pursuit of true love, and in love with books and ideas.--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times A grand romance in the Austen tradition.--USA Today Are the great love stories of the nineteenth century dead? Or can there be a new story, written for today and alive to the realities of feminism, sexual freedom, prenups, and divorce? It's the early 1980s. In American colleges, the wised-up kids are inhaling Derrida and listening to Talking Heads. But Madeleine Hanna, dutiful English major, is writing her senior thesis on Jane Austen and George Eliot, purveyors of the marriage plot that lies at the heart of the greatest English novels. As Madeleine studies the age-old motivations of the human heart, real life, in the form of two very different guys, intervenes---the charismatic and intense Leonard Bankhead, and her old friend the mystically inclined Mitchell Grammaticus. As all three of them face life in the real world they will have to reevaluate everything they have learned. Jeffrey Eugenides creates a new kind of contemporary love story in his most powerful novel yet (Newsweek).

Another Berkshire Favorite!
So soft and silky and warm and, oh the butterscotch color is such a perfect fall color! No static either! It does come rolled and sealed with plastic in a box, which I appreciate because you know you’re not getting something someone used and returned; all the Berkshire products I’ve bought come this way and while things being squished and sealed in plastic normally irritate me I approve of it here because Amazon is notorious for sending out used dirty crap and no one wants that in a blanket. Luckily with Berkshire I feel assured I’m always getting something new. Maybe that’s because the products are so high quality no one wants to return them (I know I don’t)! Or maybe they don’t allow returns, I don’t know. Sorry random tangent! But anyway, buy this for you, your friends, your pets, a stranger on the street! I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure the soft cozy feeling of this blanket could ensure world peace if everyone has one because everyone would be cozy and comfy and happy. Well maybe not everyone there’s always someone who has to complain. But not this girl. Because I’m cozy, comfy, and happy under my awesome blanket while I write this review!

Great!
It was great and soft! Very warm so maybe not a summertime blanket if it gets really warm by you! It’s really pretty and looks just like the pictures!

Pretty not practical
Size: Queen (90"x90"), Color: Tiger Print Brown
I want to like this blanket because it’s soft and pretty but it’s unfortunately one of the most annoying blankets I’ve ever had. I got this blanket to replace my comforter for summer because it’s too hot and this blanket wouldn’t be. Well because or of it’s soft underneath and the fact that the two layers are only sewn together at the edges all night long it rolls into itself and won’t stay in place. I’ve tried tucking it under my mattress but by morning my bottom half is freezing while my top half sweats because the entire blanket will have slid up.
